They’re at it again! Ruth Cardello, JS Scott, and Melody Anne come together for another royal novella trilogy. This is the third novella of a three book set.
Escape with three new princes as only these NYT’s bestselling authors could write them.
Virgin for the Trillionaire: Ruth Cardello (April 25, 2017) Virgin for the Prince: J.S. Scott (June 6, 2017) Virgin to Conquer: Melody Anne (July 3, 2017)
Robert has always been underestimated in his royal line. There's already the heir and a spare so he has something to prove. With his two brothers finding the love of their lives, he decides to outdo them and join in with the outcast side of their family from the Isle of Rubare Collina. He wants to shock his civilized family by kidnapping a bride.
This all begins as a joke with a friend, though he plans on keeping the secret from his family so they truly think he's gone to the dark side. The problem is that the woman he "kidnaps" isn't the right one. His actress wasn't there and he mistakes Izabella as his willing victim and halls her away.
Robert is out of his league with Isabella, or as her friends know her, Izzy. She's a reporter and knows all about the customs of Rubare Collina and how they were barbarians who kidnapped their brides. She knew they were lying when they said the custom was dead, and now she's ready to play along to get her story.

ok so book 3 was a good crack up seriously if I hadn't laughed at Robert kidnapping Izzy I probably would have kneed him in the balls, this trilogy has been a fun one to read because it's a true story, well written and totally over the top with 3 outrageous happy endings
I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.
In this book we meet Prince Robert Demande and Isabella Shell. Robert and his cousin Chris are playing cards and decide that the money just isn’t enough to bet with. So just to up the anti Chris proposes that if Robert loses he kidnap a friend of his like his ancient relatives did when getting their future brides. Robert bets that Chris will be stuck in the stockades on his island and have fruit thrown at him. Robert of course loses and goes about to capture his cousins friend, not knowing until later that he has the wrong woman. Or does he? Can he be falling for the woman that he kidnapped? Will she feel the same for him?
Isabella is a determined woman who is on her first vacation alone. The same night she flies into Rubare Collina she finds herself being kidnapped. She doesn’t know who has her but there is something about him that makes her feel things she never has for a man before. However how can she give into a man who one is full of himself and two kidnapped her from her room? Will she find that the kidnapping was the best thing to happen to her or the worst?
This is a great story about finding love and not knowing what to do with it. These characters have to go through some tough times to answer that question. There are some ups and downs that I really want to tell you about but don’t want to ruin it for any other reader. I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
I loved the Taken by a Trillionaire series , so when I got a copy of Virgin Conquer I was thrilled and I dived into the book as soon as I could and it was fantastic. In this book we follow Robert and Izzy and this story definitely starts off with of in a very interesting way . We see Robert kidnap Izzy and at first I was wondering to myself what is going on here , however it turns out that it was all a prank , however Izzy is not the person that was supposed to kidnap and as things are set in motion Robert cant stop the plan and on top of that along the way Robert and Izzy end up falling in love and this really where things take off in this story . I loved watching Izzy and Robert fall in love it was fantastic, even though they where in a very sticky situation with the kidnapping, you could see that these two had chemistry with each other that neither could deny . This story was sexy , addicting, fun and had one of the most swoon worthy endings I have read in a long time . I am so sad to see this series end . Virgin to conquer was fantastic! and if you love all these things in your books you should definitely pick up a copy.
Not a bad book, but a bit of a disappointment. While I did enjoy the enjoy the unusual relationship between Robert and Isabella for the most part, most of my issues stem from the continuity from the other two books. Ruth Cardello introduced some possible conflict between the royal family and the Arcano in Virgin for the Trillionaire, and even more conflict with the Arcano in J.S. Scott's Virgin for the Prince, I was really disappointed to not have that underlying conflict come to a conclusion in this book. In fact, the Arcano is barely mentioned.
It's a decent romance by itself but falls short ending the conflict started with this series. I mean really? Nothing else happens with the royal family and the Arcano after what they did to Nic? Nic barely "broke the rules", but Robert totally disregards them with no consequences?
I have to say, I love these little fantasy islands that Melody Anne, JS Scott and Ruth Cardello have created. They are extravagant , rich and over the top but oh so much fun. Prince Robert did not disappoint, he was head strong and a bit of a rebel. His love for his country is most likely the only thing that keeps him even remotely in line. After he loses a bet to his cousin, he tries to play a trick on his family by kidnapping his bride as their cousins from his sister island have done. However things don't go as planned and he gets the wrong woman, who turns out to be oh so right. Even though she protests he can see her desire. What states out as a joke soon becomes no laughing matter and he finds himself coming close to losing his woman. Isabella fell hard and fast even though she tried not to. As fate would have it she couldn't say no to the prince!
I loved this book couldn't put it down. Prince Robert Phillip Demande of Rubare Virgina and his cousin Prince Christopher Demande of Rubare Collina were playing a game of cards. When Prince Robert lost his bet, Prince Chris told him that he had to steal his future bride as a joke something that they didn't do in their Island. Prince Chris called a hot friend of his to be in on the joke of getting kidnapped, but when Prince Robert kidnaps the woman and takes her to Prince Chris safe house he realises his mistake. Isabella Shell couldn't believe what had happened to her, but she was going to try anything to get away. Prince Robert wanted Isabella to be his future wife, Isabella fell in love with Prince Robert but didn't think that he loved her. Isabella decided to leave him even thought her heart was breaking.
There is a kidnapping, a Prince, a castle, a King, hot sex, and a gift neither of the H&H were expecting. This is the third in a series by one of my favorite authors. This was is the last story about three brothers needing a wife before they turn 30 and their father, the King who gives them no option but to find a bride. They all fight this but in the end find the woman who changes their world. I love the way Melody Anne tied up this series. I like both the H&H equally. The humor that the father and the two brothers provided was an added bonus. The King tried so hard to be tough but all he wanted was his sons happy and some grandchildren. I enjoyed this fun and sexy read by this author.
Fun and fast paced. When Robert lost a bet with his cousins he ends up making a mistake that will forever change his life. Isabelle is sound asleep in her room and next thing she knows she is held captive my a strange man that is causing all these strange feelings inside her.
This is a quick read and one you have to pay attention to make sure you don't miss something. Reading this you start to believe that they may have fallen in love at first sight even if it took them a little time to figure it out.
Chris and Robert (Princely cousins) were playing poker when Chris dared Robert to kidnap his a future bride if he lost the hand. Robert lost the hand in poker and Chris set him up ti kidnap a friends of his so there would be no political repercussions in this all in fun game. But Robert kidnapped by mistake a wealthy American by the name of Isabella Shell. As fate would have it, this was indeed his future bride who led him on a merry chase.
A kidnapping gone wrong puts Isabella in Robert's hands. When he realizes the mistake he decides not to let her go. This was good with some minor issues that bothered me. If she was taken from her bed then she couldn't be wearing shoes yet she walks through the woods without any issues. I didn't agree with Robert's treatment of her in the beginning and felt he should have been more respectful. Overall though it was a good story with an HEA wrapping up things for both royal families.
Great continuation of the stories involving the brothers from the Royal families on neighbouring islands. The two youngest make a bet that goes sort of wrong, but ends up better than Prince Robert could have hoped. For Prince Christopher well that's a different ending.....
My complaint about this book is it's too short! Skipping over some key events normally detailed in full, left me a little flat, it was all over so quickly.
A fun sexy read that will leave you swooning. In this fake kidnapping gone wrong tale Robert and Izabella (Izzy) find themselves wildly attracted to each other. Can something that started as a bad joke really turn into a love of a lifetime??
This is a quick read. Almost too quick really. I would have like a lot more of it. It's a good read and perfect for a lazy afternoon. I definitely recommend it.
Prince Robert along with Prince Christopher, both from neighboring countries, had a bet, in that bet Prince Robert lost. What he would have to do for his consequence was a bit unorthodox, yet provided quite the interesting challenge. Along this bit of adventure Robert met An American - Isabella, get ready for a humorous, funny, yet intriguing, path for them both. Cute, feisty story! Loved it❤️
I have come to love this series very much. The way they go about getting their women it's very interesting. The women all seem to think that if they fight their feelings it will ask go away. Then men just seem to know what they want and take it
I love the fact that each ones of these prices adore their women and treat her like she it's the princess they want her to become. Love it....
I was highly disappointed with this book. I loved the Taken by Trillionaire book but this book is just the same story only different characters. The author didn't explain or rationalize the characters decisions. I know this is a novella and is shorter but story was just to predictable for my liking.
This one different than the others jokingly going back to ancient customs. I was kind of disappointed that the issue of him dismissing her and not being with her for an extended period of time was not addressed. He never did answer for his behavior. As usual many errors are made throughout the book.
I really enjoyed this one! It had some fummy moments and some sincere ones that you can eww and orrr too, it was a fun read and only took two sitting to finish. I think Robert is the cheeky chappy of the royal family & a great character to read about.
It was a good enough story. I just wish the heroine would have fought a bit more, after the original kidnapping, it was the olde I can't resist when he touched me scenario. Come on girls have a bit of backbone. She showed so much promise at the start.
The last book of the trilogy of the 3 princes. Melody Anne does not disappoint in her part of the trilogy. This is well written, moving story of Robert and Lizzy. Well the youngest and last to reach 30 find a wife?
this was a wonderful series from a mixture of authors. They did a wonderful job of writing about two different family's from to different islands and had them all come together in the end.
I enjoyed reading about Robert and his antics. Fate certainly has a way about her that makes everything all ok. A quick easy, read that makes you smile and chuckle, maybe wishing we could all meet a Prince.
Robert is a character.he kidnapped the wrong woman.Chases her.he shows her a good time.she falls in love with him.but tries to run he catches her.The live happily.an excellent book.read it
I really did enjoy the book very much. I love this book because the some of the characters were funny. They made me smile. The romance made curve to a surprise for the lovers. I wish it had the part when she told him. He was going to be daddy.
Very short and quick read. I had a hard time liking Robert. I was expecting more info about changes in the country. Are we to assume Rubare Virginia is now open to tourism and hence the airport there? A point of inconsistency.
I enjoyed the entire series! Loved that Robert was going to kidnap his cousins friend and ended up with the wrong girl! Knew he would fall in love! Great book and great series!!!
This entire series was a joy to read. Total escapism. No heavy angst. Beautiful scenery. Two royal families, Beautiful love stories. A fantastic fairy tale. 3 outstanding authors! Hope they continue the story.
Loved the story. Gave it a five star rating. I hope there are more books of the Damande Royals in the future since there was mentioned more of them in the United States.
Not well written. The story gets too bogged down in her thoughts and description. We needed to hear about his thoughts for contrast and tension building. Needs a rewrite.
